The Relation of Some Physical and Chemical Factors of the Soil to the Productivity and Distribution of Certain Waterfowl Food Plants at the Bear River Migratory Waterfowl Refuge
Within the last raw years several areas thin the state of Utah have been and are being developed for the conservation of migratory birds. Of utmost importance in this respect is the management of these areas so as to obtain a sufficient supply of rood plants for use by water fowl. Previous work done...
